The Delta Amplon family has a new addition — the manufacturer has introduced a new series of devices with a capacity of 5-20 kVA. The Delta Amplon RT uninterruptible power supplies are characterized by high efficiency and compact size. Previously, this family only offered relatively low-power models, but the new RT series includes single-phase and three-phase devices with capacities up to 20 kVA. The manufacturer positions them for use in […]
In this issue, I will show and explain some intricacies of setting up a CMS server in a fault-tolerant cluster mode. TheoryThere are generally three types of CMS server deployment: Single Combined, which means a single server running all necessary services. In most cases, this type of deployment is only applicable for access by internal clients and in small environments, where scalability limitations […]
A third unofficial candidate for the installer release of the upcoming major release of Debian 10 'Buster' has been prepared. The reason for creating this latest test version of the installer is the need to test last-minute changes related to the selection of recommended dependencies for kernel packages and the inclusion of the shim-signed package among the recommended dependencies for grub-efi-{arm64,i386}-signed packages. The Debian 10 release is expected on July 6. […]
Intel has released version 0.6 of the SVT-AV1 library (Scalable Video Technology AV1), which provides alternative encoders and decoders for the AV1 video encoding format, utilizing the hardware parallel computing capabilities present in modern Intel CPUs. The main goal of SVT-AV1 is to achieve a level of performance suitable for on-the-fly video transcoding and for use in on-demand video (VOD) services. […]

yescrypt is a password-based key derivation function based on scrypt. Advantages (compared to scrypt and Argon2): Improved resistance to offline attacks (due to increased attack costs while defensive costs remain unchanged). Additional functionality (for example, the ability to switch to stronger settings without knowing the password) out of the box. Utilization of cryptographic primitives approved by NIST. The possibility remains [...]
Dear friends, we have already discussed the types of wisdom teeth, what happens if they are left alone, and how the extraction process goes. It may seem straightforward, but! Patients still come in for consultations and say, "Well, the doctor at another clinic said..." Suggesting that such complex teeth should be removed outside of a hospital setting, [...]
I am adding a review of my little helper — the Seek Thermal Compact mobile thermal imaging camera. This thermal camera for smartphones and tablets helps detect and eliminate heat or cold leaks, spot electrical wiring issues, see areas of localized heating or overheating of equipment, find game while hunting, and more. Seek Thermal has managed to create an affordable and accessible compact device that connects to [...]
Working with Docker in the console is a routine for many. However, there are occasions when a GUI/web interface can be beneficial even for them. This article presents an overview of the most notable solutions available today, whose authors have attempted to offer more convenient (or suitable for specific cases) interfaces for exploring Docker or even managing large installations of it. […]
By the end of 2018, the number of hyperscale data centers reached 430. Analysts predict that this year their number will increase to 500. Work is already underway to construct an additional 132 hyperscale data centers. Together, they will process 68% of the data generated by humanity. These data centers' capacities are needed by IT companies and cloud providers. Photo — Atomic Taco — CC BY-SA Who builds […]
